I always park backing my vehicle in – with the tail of my vehicle in and the front facing out. This is symbolic of how I try to live my life: always moving forward, I never want to go backwards. In life, symbols (and how we use them to consciously direct our lives) are as important as the actions we take. It’s about how we set up our day, week, month, and year.

“Your abilities might give you potential, but your choices demonstrate your character, courage, or kindness.” That quote exhibits the concept of action over ability. This is something that I try to teach my kids, team members, and those I mentor. You can have all the natural gifts in the world. BUT if you don’t put in the work, those gifts will go to waste.

Stock Market What a year it’s been already – and it’s only January! To some, the past month has felt like far more than 31 days on Wall Street, and for good reason through a headline-filled, volatile start to 2026. Stocks pulled back on Friday, the last trading day of the month, as technology shares continued to struggle, even as investors generally welcomed President Donald Trump’s selection of Kevin Warsh to lead the Federal Reserve. Despite Friday’s losses and the volatility that defined much of the month, the major indexes managed to finish January in positive territory. S&P 500 +1.4% […]
